Book Review: Awakening by Cate Tiernan (Book 5 of the Sweep Series)


A Little About the Book: For now, Morgan is safe from the dark wave that has been attacking witches. Betrayed by her first love, she is trying to come to grips with her Woodbane heritage and with Wicca—its thorn and its rose.


My Review:  After almost being burned to death by her boyfriend, Cal, Morgan feels betrayed and heart broken.  Cal had used her and then tried to murder her, and all because she had the potential to be a very powerful witch.  Even after Cal and his mother, Selene, fled before Hunter could bring them to justice, Morgan still has strong feelings for Cal.  She loved him- even after what he had done. 

Her life was in a constant whirlwind of chaos and turmoil.  Hunter is now leading the Cirrus and Morgan isn't sure how she feels about that, even though the rest of the coven really enjoy having Hunter as the coven leader.  Morgan's biggest problem with Hunter is that even though he annoys her, she can't help feeling drawn to him- she can't help imagining what it would be like to be wrapped up in his arms and to feel his lips pressed against hers passionately.  She was so confused about it all.

After feeling dark magic at work, Morgan can't help thinking that it's either Cal or Selene.  Hunter believes otherwise and is constantly trying to convince Morgan that the culprit is really someone she knew and trusted, but she doesn't want to believe it- even if she knows deep down that Hunter might be right.

To top it off, Morgan's aunt and her girlfriend are harassed by boys of their neighborhood and Morgan can feel the temptation to use magic to teach them a lesson.  She went as far as zapping one of them with witch fire.  But how far is she willing to go to ensure that they boys leave her aunt and Paula alone?

Awakening is full of magic, betrayal, passion, and strength.  When life is thrown into to turmoil for Morgan Rowlands, she has to find a way to cope with all that's happening- good and bad.  Relationships are tested and friendships are on the mend.  Another great novel of the sweeps series.  5/5 STARS
